The next couple weeks

Wanted to fill you all in as the school year is winding down...

Students are hard at work finishing up their classes at Hamline and St. Olaf. Our year-end gatherings with InterVarsity were great opportunities to catch up, honor those graduating, and look ahead to what God is already starting to do for the campuses next school year. At both schools, students have been developing a deeper understanding of God's call for them to be witnesses on campus, and in talking with next year's leaders, there is a great deal of excitement for all the new opportunities for sharing Christ and supporting others as they grow closer to God.

On Saturday morning, I drive up to Cedarville, Michigan, for two weeks at InterVarsity's Cedar Campus. If you're a regular reader, you may remember that students from West Virginia to North Dakota travel to this camp at the end of the school year for Chapter Focus Week. During my time there, I will be leading students in times of worship and doing some teaching that addresses the brokenness in the world and how we can respond to that reality on campus and beyond.

When I return at the end of May, I will post pictures and stories about how God was at work. In the mean time, please join in prayer for the hundreds of students who will be there in the coming weeks, for safe travel, and for God to provide clear direction and conviction.

Thanks
